Abstract

Introduction The marine habitat is a plentiful source of diverse, active compounds that are extensively utilised for their medicinal properties. Pharmaceutical trends have currently changed towards utilising a diverse range of goods derived from the marine environment.Method This study aimed to examine the inhibitory effects of bioactive chemicals derived from marine algae and bacteria. The identification of these compounds was carried out through the process of Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) profiling. Subsequently, these compounds were subjected to docking simulations against a specific set of target proteins that are known to be frequently overexpressed in three distinct types of cancer.Result From the docking results, the ligand 1,4:3,6:5,7-Tribenzal-beta-mannoheptitol was found to be effective against the proteins mTOR (PDB ID: 4JSV) and FGFR2 (PDB ID:6V6Q). The findings of this study highlight the significant benefits offered by the tool under investigation, which effectively enhances the efficiency of the docking procedures.Conclusion These compounds hold significant potential for further development and exploration in the field of cancer therapeutics.
